The Surplus Revenue.

/ The official atement of the revenue for
the fiscal year ended January 30, 1887,
gives the total of S3.l ,403. 1T, OF which
sum $2l7,2s6, 500 was derived from tariff
taxes and s1lS,s23 ,Ssl IRON internal taxes.
The increase ever 1886 was abou, 1885,.
100000. The principal sources Of this
| large incre,se--outside Of customs du-
ties-which account for nearly s25 ,000,-
600 of It, are spirits, tobacco, fermen,cd
liquors and oleomargrrine, the taIation
of which commenced eight months ago.
| The report shows an increase Of receipts
from tobacco aud fermented liquors, but
a decrease over three millions Of dollars
] IN the tax 90 spi.its .did.senes .ha, ma;
be fairly attributed to the local-option
and proh:bitory laws that
have been passed in various States, and Is
an evidence that in manv cases beer has
been substituted tor spirituous liquors.
The surplus revenue is about 5000 900
less than the tois receipts derived from
revenue. aud il the protectionists
could have their own way they would de.
sire nothing better than IN get rid of all
internal taxation and leave the customs
duties as they are. But the general feel i
ing of the country appears 10 be in favor /
Of a simultaneoJs reduction IN both /.
of income, leaving the whiskey .
tax as it is, because by keeping up its
cost Ia the consumer the consumption is to 4
some degree limited. while to remove'the !
tax would have the effect Of increasing it. 4
The annual receipts from the tobacco tax
are about thirty millions of dollars the .
revenue from the source increasing a, the .
rate of two millions Of dol ars year. To- /
bacco is undoubtedly luxury 10 this /
sense that it is not one of The accessories
Of life. but its injury To health, ewes with I
habitual users, is infinitely less than the .
i'm moderate use of spirituous liquors and, /
therefore, if a choice be made between
the two in dealing with the internal rev.
enue taxes a reduction 10 the tobacco tax
is to be preferred. For the remainder of
the surplus Mr.. Sherman would say.
" A bolish the duties on sugar and subsid |
ize the sugar planters" But there are
other customs duties that might be taken
off or reduced with much greater benefit
10 the people. A reduction of the duties
on iron, stee', wool and woo'eus are
among these, and. above all, the total
abolition Of all duties on the raw material
of manufactures There seems to be a
disposition in both parties to agree on
some compromise Of this kind and i, will
undoubtedly be put to the test duri.g the
coming session Of Congress.-Balto. Sun.

The w heat Crop.

The weekly Trade Review of r. G. Dun
& Co, issued from their office in New
York, under recent date says: More
than third of all the wheat which wi |
leave the farms throughout the country
during the entire year, was sold IN this
one city during the past six days. lie
ported sales reached 107 100000 bushels
of wheat, % ,257, 900 corn, s.273,00 barrels
oil, 1,046, 400 bales cotton. and 46s,o0O
bags coffee Wheat advanced st cents.
corn, Al, oats, II, oil, IL, and coffee halt a
cent, while cotton declined sixteenth ;
hogs, pork. and pork products were ex-
cited, hogs raising 40 cents per 100 pounds
and lard 20 cents; tin jumped 81 cents
again, and copper uear'y one cent. Ap-
pretended deficiency of supplies is the
excuse for the excited advance in some
products, but the bottom fact is, that more
currency is in circulation than ever before,
and Treasury deposits with banks feed
:he speculative fever, while removing the
fear of monetary pressure at the chief cen
tres of trade. Meanwhile, money remains
light at many interior points, and COM
plants of slow collections do not abate.
Tie great sPscr rh wrBsE goes cnT
10 spite of a decline of $4,000 bushels
in October exports, and $500 900 bushels

We are making money" the traders say
put the quantity remaining on hand Nov
,mber 1st, after allowance for full years |
was 1O9, 100000 bushels;
whereas the exports for the remaining |
months of the last crop year were l00,-
76S,941 bushels. Corn is excited because
IF the bureau reduction OF $4,000, 900 |
bushels in its estimate: at the same time
pork products and cattle rise. Mondays |
markets showed sharp reduction in grain |
out whether the speculation has culminat
ID no one can say. Cotton has reached
out little from the great advance caused |
~ the Bureau report, but receipts con-
inue large beyond precedent if the cur
.ect, Bureau estimate of $500, 900 bales, |
IS correct, the quantity which has come
forward already, about 3,254 900 bales, is
not less than 5l.6 per cent. OF the years
yield. 1t is not strabge that some are in
doubt about it.

A BAD NASAL ORGAN.

For over four years have been great
sufferer from terrible form of Nasal
Catarrh, | was greatly ANNOYED with a
constant roaring in my head and my
hearing became very much impaired.
The discharge from my nose was pro-
fuse and very offensive, and my general
health impaired. tried ost all promi>
nept physicians, but they did not cure
me, and I used various advertised prep
arations without benefit.
One day | CHANGED to read a remark
able article written by prominent citi-
zen of Athens, Ga, stating that he had
been permanently cured by the use of
eight bottles of B. B. B-Botanic Blood
Balm. Being skeptical on the subject. |
wrote to him on the subject and received
a most encouraging answer to the effect
that he had been cured long enough to
be thoroughly satisfied that no return OF
the disease would ensue.
then sent to the drug store Of T. E.
Smith & Bro.. and purchased B. B. B.
and 10 my utter astonishment and salts
faction, the use of ten bottles has restor-
ed my general health, stopped the roar
ing sensation, entirely healed and cured
the nasal catarrh and am proud to rec
ommend a blood remedy with such
powerful curative properties.
shall continue its use a little longer
and feel confident that will be entirely
cured of one of the most obstinate cases
of nasal catarrh in the country.
The business men of our town know OF
my case. N. C. EDWARDS.

Di.order. vbich Afrect the Kidneys.

Are among the most formidable known.
Diabetes, Bright's disease, gravel and other
complaints of the urinary organs are not
ordinarily cured in severe cases, but they
may be averted by timely medication. A
useful stimulant of the urinary glands has
ever been found in Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, medicine which not only affords
the requisite stimulus when they become
inactive, but increases their yigor and Sc
cretive power By increasing the activity
of the kidneys and bladder, this medicine
has the additional effect of expelling from
the blood impurities which tits the peculiar
Office of those organs to eliminate and pass
off. The Bitters is also a purifier and
strengthener of the bowels, an invigorant
of the stomach and matchless remedy for
biliousness and fever and ague. 1t coun-
teracts tendency to premature decay, and
sustains and comforts the aged and inirm.
